Clos du Bois Video Shows Increased Manufacturing Perfromance and OEE

Unplanned bottlenecks and stoppages on its high-speed bottling line were hampering efficiency at Clos du Bois’ wine production operation. To help it gain insight into what was happening and identify areas that needed improvement, the company implemented a Rockwell Automation data management solution. As a result, operators and managers have on-demand access to downtime monitoring and alerts, production performance analytics, and equipment operating metrics, which is helping reduce bottling stoppages and increase efficiency.
